He was more the guy who, after I watched the movie, I came away thinking, he was really good.

I guess the last movie I saw RW in was 'Coma', it came out around 1978. Richard played the crazy hospital administrator that was harvesting body parts and Michael Douglas I believe was a young doctor or intern who exposed the plan. However, I seem to always remember Richard Widmark dressed as a naval officer commanding a submarine or destroyer.

I just remember his name being one of those guys from the 70's listed as "An All Star Cast!"
With Charlton Heston, Paul Newman, Henry Fonda, and Slim Pickens!

Huh. I didn't know that. Robin Cook and Michael Chrichton..no wonder it was such a damn good medical thriller.

Hats off. My favorite Widmark role was Pickup on South Street. Good Cold War film noir, he does a good job.
